Customer Testimonals
  • “I had an excellent weekend on the 3 day survival course. Lots of information and guidance from the highly knowledgeable instructors. Hard work but I highly recommend this course to anyone with an interest in any outdoor activities”.

  • Had a great 3 day course with Neal and Brad who were the instructors , learned loads of good techniques on navigation , fire lighting , shelter building and loads more finished off with an excellent wee refreshing dip in a nearby gorge . This is the place to come if your serious about outdoor survival. Cheers guys

  • I had one of the most memorable experiences of my life – I learned a lot, in the most beautiful of settings, with a knowledgeable and encouraging guide who also happened to be great company!

    — Mark Wareham

  • Perfect 2 day survival course – really got to go to my extreme. From building shelter over fire and water acquisition to navigation and hazard water crossing! Everything right to the max and Neil is great guide / teacher.

    Thanks for the brilliant time and keep up the good work

Cracking effort from these guys who over the weeke Cracking effort from these guys who over the weekend completed the 3 Peaks Challenge in 23 hours! 💪⛰️

Due to some of the group’s links to Backcountry Survival we supported this with advice before and during the event. We also supplied equipment (and beanies!!) to ensure they had the correct equipment and safety gear that they may have required in an emergency. The guys made it up and down all 3 peaks with no issues (other than a few aches and pains!) in a very respectable time.

We are always here to provide advice and training for anyone venturing into the great outdoors! 👍

However, that didn't dampen the mood for our 3 dayers and what a brilliant weekend we had 👌

It was also a great reminder for us all that after the storm, come the midges...
